One more question...you have a button to "turn off patterns" on you system. I don't seem to have that. DO I have that on Home Designer Pro? I can't seem to find it... Thanks again! Erich

Thank you so much for your instruction and insight. The second floor ceiling where you thought there might be a sky-light is just flat ceiling. And as for that little wall at the apex of the highest roof (at the intersection of all the gables) that I will add in the attic story as you did and just adjust as needed. As I said in my note, for some reason, I can not seem to just click and join the roof planes like you do. Maybe I am doing it wrong. Thanks again! I look forward to implementing some of the ideas you gave me... BTW, the house is nowhere...it is just an original design of mine that I have been working on for many years.

Sorry it took so long for me to get back to this. Life got in the way. I have attached a zipped copy of my plan. I can not figure out why the roof controls are not working for me. The roof remains incomplete..and by that I mean, all of the sections are there and in place, but they have not all been joined to the intersecting planes. Every time I try, it fails. I can not get the gables (planes) to match up properly. The "interior" portions of the gables are still showing fascia on the interior of the plan. One fascia has shot through the first floor into the "piano" room (I am really confused about that). Two sections of fascia have poked through the living room ceiling along the "piano" room wall. In the second floor "Hall" you can clearly see what I am talking about as all of the gables, or roof planes, connect above it and all of the fascia's are showing on the interior. I have moved all of the roof planes to the "attic" level for ease of seeing them. The other flat roof portions on the first floor I have left in place and am having less trouble with those. This is mind-numbing. I have a feeling it is something very simple, but I have been struggling with it for over about 10 days now. Any help would be greatly appreciated. House copy.plan.zip

I don't as of yet...but when I do I'll try. I see that there is a max total of 25mb upload here....my plan is already larger than that.

I did finish the roof. I thought the same thing...finish it and it will take care of itself. But it didn't. This is the second go round and it's still doing the same thing. It is very frustrating.

As you can see the gable fascia has made its way into the interior. Obviously the roof is unfinished as I have become very frustrated with it! Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Good Morning, I am using Home Designer Pro 2021 for MAC. I am working on a roof on a 1 1/2 story house that has four intersecting gables. Two of the gables have a different pitch. The problem is that when I create the roof, (with roof planes) the gable fascia and the eave fascia show up on both sides of the gable---i.e. on the interior. Is there a way to remove the fascia on just one side? Erich Kaiser Home Design Pro 2021 for MAC

When I do that, it only saves the "base" window...not the component pieces I have added. For instance, in the pictured window of my original post, the vertical muntins as well as the "center" horizontal muntin have been physically added by me. When I save it to the library, it saves as this...see attached pic.

Hello everyone-- I have been spending hours designing a set of windows that I would like to save as a 3D object in my library so I don't have to constantly create the window every time I use it. Is that possible? I have seen people import things from "SketchUp" but I have been working in the HDPro program itself. I have included a picture of the window... Any help would be greatly appreciated! Erich Kaiser Home Design Pro 2021 for MAC

Great thank you!

I am trying to create a glass block wall. Every time I add the glass block it is not centered in the wall, i.e. half a block is cut off on one side, top, or bottom. HOW can I center this without changing the size of the opening? I am using Home Designer Pro 2021 for MAC.
